Synopsis

'Unsettling and seductive, this tale of two sisters is moving, gripping and unforgettable' – THE INDEPENDENT

'Alluring, dangerous, entangling' – GUARDIAN

Rona Leonard walks out of her sister Fiona's flat and disappears.

Six years on, worn down by work, child care and the aching absence in her life, Fiona's existence is blown apart by the revelation that, before she disappeared, Rona had been working as a prostitute.

Bittersweet, sensual and rich, Fishnet is a story of love and grief, interwoven with an empathetic, controversial take on the sex industry and its workers. An outstanding novel, it challenges assumptions about power, vulnerability and choice.

‘Thoughtful, bruising, poignant and poetic' – IAN RANKIN

'Dark and provocative ... holds its gaze steady on the sex industry' – METRO
